Malvasia Puntinata, also known as Malvasia del Lazio, is a distinguished member of the Malvasia grape family renowned for producing exquisite white wines. This grape variety is prized for its ability to create wonderfully sweet wines with rich, aromatic profiles. However, it is highly sensitive to many common grape diseases, which historically led winemakers to favor the more disease-resistant Malvasia di Candia as a substitute.
Despite Malvasia di Candia’s resilience, it is generally considered a grape of lower quality. Recently, Malvasia Puntinata has seen a resurgence as growers replant vineyards dedicated solely to this variety, aiming to produce premium wines that showcase its superior quality and unique character.
Today, Malvasia Puntinata is celebrated for its contribution to high-quality, sweet white wines that express elegance, complexity, and a distinctive regional identity.
